Great post, thank you.

Just an FYI, yesterday 12/14/2019 was the 220th anniversary of the passing of General George Washington, our first President.

A brief but fascinating account of his passing can be found here:

The Tobias Lear Journal: An Account of the Death of George Washington.

Much has been made of the incredibly brave, but suicidal charge by Pickett’s division at Gettysburg, into the face of slaughtering fire. Union troops made the same fruitless assault against Rebel defenses at Fredericksburg. Ten times.
